Adaptor function of PapF depends on donor strand exchange in P-pilus biogenesis of Escherichia coli.

Journal of bacteriology - 1 Jul 2007

Lee Yvonne M, Dodson Karen W, Hultgren Scott J

Abstract excerpt

P-pilus biogenesis occurs via the highly conserved chaperone-usher pathway and involves the strict coordination of multiple subunit proteins. All nonadhesin structural P-pilus subunits possess the same topology, consisting of two domains: an incomplete immunoglobulin-like fold (pilin body) and an N-terminal extension. Pilus subunits form interactions with one another through donor strand exchange, occurring at...
